bly, to the house the senate bill to repeal

to congress. The report accompanying
the bill says it is in the highest degree
observable that this transit should be
under the influence, if it cannot be under
the control of the United States, looking
to the large benefits, not only to the
United States and the republic of
Nicaragua and her sister republics,
but also to the commerce aud inter-
communication of the whole sisterhood
of civilized governments on the globe.
The coz mittee recommends the passage
OF the DILL, in the hope that the resources
and enterprise of private citizens OF our
country may be enabled to accomplish
this great work, even If our government
itself is not yet ready TO undertake. it.

DIABOLICAL.
A Dynamite Cartridge Placed in the Cable
Slot on a San Francisco Street Railway.

Slot on San Francisco Street Railway.
SAN Francisco, CAL, Jan. 6.-At late
hour last night the residents in the
vicinity of Ninth and Harrison streets
were startled by terrific explosion.
Most of them had retired. Being
awakened from their sleep they ran out
into the streets in their night clothing.
The first impression was that it was an
earthquake. Investigation, however,
disclosed the fact that 8 dynamite
cartridge had been placed IN the cable
slo or the Larken street branch of the
Suffer Street Riiroad and ha6 eX-
ploded. The bssalt rocks on either side
of the slot were found to be loosened
and the masonry was badly shattered.
The pulleys upon which the cable runs
were also broken, and the foundation OF
the tunnel was cracked. In saloon two
blocks away lighted lamp was thrown
to the floor, and came near causing a con-
fagratiOn. The iron plates on the man.
holes of the trace were found 200 feet
away, to which distance they were hurled.
A lady living in the neighborhood said
that few minutes before the explosion
she saw two men go to the trap.
One CT them lifted the top while the
other took package from his
pocket, applied match to it and lowered
it into the tunnel. The men then secret
ed themselves. The explosion follow
and the witness saw the cables and ma
chinery of the trap flying IN all ways.
Many Of the awakened women and chill
dren were so frightened that they went to
the houses of friends to pass the night,
fearing if they remained in their own
houses another explosion might occur and
shatter them.
Closer examination shows the damage
to be less than at first supposed. The
cable was not broken, and cars are now
running as usual. The police have been
set to work to discover the perpetrators,
and claim to have clew which will lead
to their apprehension.

Encyclopedia britannica to be known
from Chicago to Winnipeg, returned
from the former city on Monday last,
after brief visit at the home of his
parents. The many advantages which
our fair city possesses is fast forcing
Mr.. Ahern to lose his grip on Chicago.
Mrs. Ira Myers (nee Miss Katie Nc.
Gurk). of Great Falls, Montana, is in
the city on visit to the home Of her
parents, 316 Fourteenth avenue north.
Mrs. Myers speaks in the most glowing
terms of the future of that territory and
believes that the many natural advan-
tages that Great Falls possesses will, in
the no distant future, make it a city of
vast proportions. Miss Bridget Nc
Gurk, who has been in Great Falls dur
ing the past few months, returned home
in company with Mrs. Myers. The lat
ter lady, with her husband, will spend
